CHAPTER 1 INTRODUCTION
This chapter describes the outline of the V
R
4181 (
µ
PD30181), which is a 64-/32-bit microprocessor.
1.1 Features
The V
R
4181, which is a high-performance 64-/32-bit microprocessor employing the RISC (reduced instruction set
computer) architecture developed by MIPS
TM
, is one of the V
R
-Series microprocessor products manufactured by NEC
Electronics.
The V
R
4181 contains the V
R
4110
TM
CPU core of ultra-low-power consumption with cache memory, high-speed
product-sum operation unit, and memory management unit. It also has interface units for peripheral circuits such as
LCD controller, CompactFlash controller, DMA controller, keyboard interface, serial interface, IrDA interface, touch
panel interface, real-time clock, A/D converter and D/A converter required for the battery-driven portable information
equipment. The features of the V
R
4181 are described below.
